Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 21, 2026
This policy explains how Blinkcraft ("we", "us") handles personal data in BXN Dating ("the App"), published on Google Play as Casual Hookup & Dating App BXN under the developer name Meet People Video Dating Apps.
In short: we collect what we need to run the App, we use trusted service providers to host it, generate AI replies and measure installs, we do not sell your personal data, and you can delete your data at any time.
1. What we collect
| Data | What it includes | Where it is kept |
|---|---|---|
| Account | Your email address and password if you create an account, or an anonymous guest ID if you use the App without one. Your password is handled by Firebase Authentication and is never visible to us. | Google Firebase |
| Profile | The name, age and gender you enter, and a profile photo if you add one. | On your device. Your photo is never uploaded. |
| Location | Your precise device location (GPS), only if you give the App location permission. | Sent to our servers when you set up the App |
| Messages | The messages you send to characters, their replies, your matches, blocks and coin balance. | Google Firebase; messages also pass to our AI providers |
| App activity | How you use the App, such as screens viewed, swipes and features used. | On your device and in Firebase Analytics |
| Device and identifiers | Device model, operating system and version, language, app version, IP address, Firebase app-instance ID and your Android advertising ID. | Firebase Analytics and Singular |
| Support | Anything you send us by email, including reports. | Our email system |
We do not collect your contacts, call logs, SMS, payment details or files other than a photo you choose. The App does not offer purchases.
2. How we use it
- To provide the App: create and secure your account, show profiles, match you, deliver conversations and keep track of your coins.
- To set up your experience: we use your location once, when you set up the App, to decide which features and content are available to you, and to prevent fraud and abuse.
- To keep the App safe: enforce our Terms, including their child safety rules, review reports, detect fraud and misuse, and monitor sign-ins to accounts we issue to testers and reviewers.
- To understand and improve the App: measure how features are used, find and fix problems, and measure which marketing campaigns led to installs.
- To send notifications: if you allow notifications, the App shows reminders such as new messages and when your next free spin is ready. These are scheduled on your device.
- To meet legal obligations: respond to lawful requests and report illegal content, including child sexual abuse material, to the authorities.
Where the law requires a legal basis (for example in the EU and UK), we rely on performing our contract with you, our legitimate interests in running, securing and improving the App, your consent (for location, notifications and where otherwise required), and our legal obligations.
3. AI characters and your messages
Characters in the App are powered by AI. When you send a message to a character, its text and the recent conversation are sent through our servers to AI model providers so that a reply can be generated. We do not use your messages to build an advertising profile. Please do not share sensitive information, such as health details or financial information, in chats.
4. Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with:
- Service providers that run the App for us, under contracts that limit how they may use it:
- Google Firebase (authentication, database, file storage and analytics)
- Cloudflare (our servers and app configuration)
- OpenRouter and the AI model providers it connects to (generating character replies)
- Singular (install attribution and marketing measurement)
- Authorities, when the law requires it, to protect anyone's safety, or to report child sexual abuse and exploitation to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and law enforcement.
- A buyer or successor, if our business or the App is sold or merged, under the same protections as this policy.
5. Third-party sites
Some parts of the App open websites run by other companies inside the App's built-in browser. Those sites can collect information and set cookies under their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to read. The App remembers the address of the page you last had open so it can take you back there. Cookies those sites set stay in the App's browser storage on your device until you delete the App's data or uninstall it.
6. How long we keep it
- Account, messages, matches and coins: until you delete your account or ask us to delete them.
- Profile details and photo: on your device until you delete your account in the App, clear the App's data or uninstall it.
- Location: only as long as needed for the purposes above.
- Analytics and attribution data: for the retention periods set in Firebase Analytics and Singular, after which they are deleted or aggregated.
- Reports and evidence about child safety or illegal activity: for as long as the law requires.
7. Your choices and rights
- Delete your data: in the App, or by email. See Delete my data.
- Location: you can refuse or withdraw location permission at any time in your device settings.
- Notifications: you can turn them off in your device settings.
- Advertising ID: you can reset or delete it in your Android settings under Privacy, then Ads.
- Your rights: depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal data, to object to or restrict how we use it, to withdraw consent, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal data as defined by some US state laws. We do not sell personal data, and we will not treat you differently for using these rights.
To delete your data, email delete (remove this) @getblocal.com. For any other request, email contacts (remove this) @getblocal.com. Please write from the email address on your account. We reply within 30 days. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
8. Security
Data is encrypted in transit between the App and our servers and providers, and access to our systems is limited to people who need it. No system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee the security of your data, but we work to protect it and will tell you and the authorities about a breach where the law requires.
9. International transfers
Our service providers may process data in the United States and other countries outside your own. Where the law requires, these transfers are protected by safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
10. Children
The App is only for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If we learn that a minor is using the App, we close the account and delete its data, except anything we must preserve by law. Our Terms set out how we protect children, our zero-tolerance CSAE and CSAM policy, and how to report a concern.
11. Changes
We may update this policy. When we do, we change the date at the top of this page, and for significant changes we will tell you in the App.
12. Contact
For questions about this policy or data requests, email contacts (remove this) @getblocal.com. For deletion requests, email delete (remove this) @getblocal.com.
